Truth

'Twas an eventful mishap:
Our accidental meeting-
Stumbling into each other
Tripping on a locked gaze
Oblivious to human traffic
Ignoring warning signals that
Reached a screaming pitch-
Jumping the red light that forbade
Us to go further on this path,
Chosen, already, for us!

A soul now breathed into mishappen lives
Knowing this: that we may not be "right"
But will always, ever, be true
To ourselves
And so, each other...
